And if I was also to tell you it's been my 21st birthday this weekend, you probably think I have some hilarious drunken stories to tell, but alas, I haven't.

Weekend was good though. Finished work early on friday and went home for the weekend. Out for a few beers on friday night, then shopping on saturday where I bought some new shoes (I only mention them as they come into play later in the story).

Went to Walthmstow (sp?) dogs saturday night and completely lost my voice. Scientific fact alert: Shouting expletives at the dog does not make it run faster. Damn.

Had a good night though, won some money, lost some money. A bit down overall though but spent less than I would have done if I'd just gone to a club, and had a better time because I did something a bit different, which was the whole point of it.

Anyway, had a family meal and stuff today.

My mum's cooking tastes nice, but why does she cook so damn much?! I ate it all anyway though... :-D

Trained back to Surrey this evening, and popped along to the drama rehersal as I needed to arrange a lift to the other place on Tuesday. Ended up staying for the whole evening though, despite the fact I'm completely knackered as I've has sod all sleep all weekend.

Anyway, I digress. Continuing:

We reherse in this kind of youth centre type place, and there's a bit of a sports hall with some basket ball hoops. So we're in there, doing our stuff and we have a break. We do the classic bloke challenege "I bet you can't jump and hold onto the basket ball ring". So I give it a go.

Except I'm wearing my new shoes, which are damn nice, but have a solid leather sole. So the heels are damn hard.

I jump up, off the wall, and miss the hoop by mere millimetres. I fall to the ground. I land on one foot with these bloody shoes on. I fall to the ground in pain. They laugh.

Nice.

I'm now sitting here with a heel that's the colour of a plum and hoping I can have a day of work tomorrow to try and complete Halo at last...

Anyway, a good weekend all round.


Oh, I'm back by the way ;-)
Shame chat's full of *

ps If i swear again i'm going to get hit in the groin with a big stick. Oh Yes!

Wow! You're only 4 months older than me.

Nice to have you back, suspected broken ankle and everything.

How Disappointing. I was expecting a tale of heroic alcohol consumption, followed by a vivid description of an extraordinarily stupid misadventure, possibly involving a gerbil and a dog collar.

"I land on one foot with these bloody shoes on. I fall to the ground in pain. They laugh."

(I assume you weren't referring to the shoes there?)


Anyway, hopefully you'll be okay. I'd have thought so, as the last few levels of Halo aren't *too* tricky.

I wish I was there to see you fall and so I could have joined in the laughter.

Oh well, *haha*

Poke it with a stick and see........... report findings afterwards.

:D

Hope you had a great birthday thingy though.

Just tell your boss that...... eeerrrr........ hhhhmmmmmm ..........

Youve badly hurt your ankle.......... Simple!

Welcome back though and I agree with your statement about the forums being full of poop.
